My dear Miss Taft:
Todays mail brought me one of the very nicest gifts I ever had. I can never tell you how much I appreciate it. And the beautiful part is to think your [owns????] hands helped to make it. How can I every repay you both for your doing all that for me. Miss Taft a gift that you make and give to me means lots more than anything you could just buy it always seems so much more personal to receive a gift that has patience time and thoughts from the given put into it. So thanks again to you both.
Mailel you a letter Sun so hope you have it by now. The weather is very warm in fact what you would call hot. This morning we could scarcely breathe for smoke as there is a forest fire at Buckley and the wind blew the smoke in our dirrection.
The poor fruit trees are coaxing for rain altho they are nice & green there leaves are curled heavenward.
Hazel is getting supper & I can smell it burning so must come to her rescue if I want the fmaily to eat.
The day after you left Hazel started to be a lady & I had quite a time with her as she was dreadfully nervous and had to go to school too. Hope her exzema leaves now.
Must hurry now so as to mail this at O. M. tonight.
Lovingly, Essie
